Compositions based or essential aminoacids are described for preventing and treating alimentary overloads in conditions of elevated body nitrogen requirements, without causing calcium losses. In the compositions according to the invention, the ratios among aminoacids are balanced according to the real requirements of human metabolism in order to achieve maximal protein syntheses and, at the same time, minimal catabolic loads. The compositions comprise from 20 to 75% of the branched chain aminoacids, leucine, isoleucine and valine, from 10 to 50% of threonine and lysine, and up to 40% of cistine, hystidine, phenylalanine, and thyrosine, methionine and triptophan. |
